It is recommended that you do NOT kill Rock if you meet him in person. His friends may not appreciate it.

I mean, look how happy they all are in this desert village.

Battontons continue their tradition of appearing in inconvenient spots when you’re trying to mine resources or stop other mobs from tearing your face off.

New in 1.9: Sentry Shells and Copy Robots! They even walk around trying to recruit for Wily’s army.

One important change in 1.9 is that I finally fixed the vignette.png that everyone didn’t like. It’s now spread out to the edges of the screen so it isn’t distracting.

Skeleton and zombie horses are now properly textured. The skeleton horse is based off of Freeze Man’s boss room.

The book on the enchanting table is no longer boring. BLECH, was it ever ugly in all my previous releases.

Here’s most of what’s new in the 1.9 release. New fire, command blocks, redstone blocks, and check out that ice courtesy of the Frost Walker enchantment.

The big reason I changed the fire was to give it a rounded bottom, so it no longer looks strange when mobs go up in flames. Thank Rockman Battle & Fighters on the Neo Geo Pocket Color for that.

Redstone has been revamped in 1.9 because of changes in how the textures are rendered. Individual spots of redstone now look like lingering energy pulses from long dead robots.

Got new item frames in 1.9 too, based on the weapon HUD in Mega Man 8.

After researching what orchids actually look like, I redesigned them so they look like strings of LEDs growing out of the ground, adding to the pack’s high-tech theme. They’re quite lovely when they twinkle at night.
